We Caught Up With Courtney Allegra At LAFW

Courtney Allegra showed the perfect swimwear collection at LAFW last night. The bikinis had us dreaming dreams of metallic filled Spring Break pool side ensembles, perfectly accessorized with gold pendant necklaces, sky-high heels, and Barbie-worthy bouncy curls. We caught up with Courtney after the show to find out about her inspiration for the collection, pre-show jitters, and what’s next for the budding bikini designer! See it all, below.

What inspired your collection?

This collection was inspired by the galaxy, so I had lots of metallics, foil colored fabrics, and starry, night sky type stuff.

What made you want to become a swimwear designer?

I started out doing leatherwear, but I couldn’t wear it most of the time because I live in California (it’s usually hot!). So I just decided I should do something I could actually wear, like bikinis!

Were you nervous for the show tonight?

No, but before I went out on the runway, one of my friends was like “Don’t fall!” That worried me a bit.

What’s next for you?

I’m doing Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in Miami! All the fabrics are my own designs. It’s gonna be a totally different line, really colorful and tropical.

The landscape of the fashion industry has no doubt always leaned in favor of our straight-sized sisters, but 2018 reports show that there are more women today who wear a size 14 or larger than ever before. Curious, no? This means that the majority of us out here are considered “plus” size, even when realistically

Stoner, but chic. Clueless meets Romeo + Juliet. Or, to put this politely, Tai Frasier links up with Travis Birkenstock and AJ to launch a super sick clothing line. To sum it all up, Valley High‘s newest “Checked Out” collection is the personified version of the best of the 90s. View this post on Instagram
